Service lines · index

Seven ways a vessel spends money. One way to buy them well.

Five of the seven vessel lines run through the same engine: a structured requirement, sealed bids from verified suppliers, and a tracked order with proof at the end. Two run their own procedure — chartering negotiates blind, round by round, to a concluded fixture; consultancy is platform-priced, with the expert sourced for you. And an eighth line faces the supply side: suppliers buy stock from the platform, factories sell to it.

Bunkering & fresh water

Fuel and water for the same call, priced per tonne — one service line, one supplier audience.

Bunkers and fresh water are bought together, delivered alongside, and supplied by the same operators in most ports — so the platform treats them as one service line. Quantities are entered in tonnes or cubic metres and normalised, which makes offers directly comparable instead of a spreadsheet exercise.

Port agency

Husbandry, clearance, crew movements — agency work with visible scope and sealed pricing.

Agency appointments run on trust because scope is fuzzy. GeoMarineHub makes the scope explicit: the services requested are listed, the terms are stated, and competing agents at the port price the same defined job.

Chartering

Owners list tonnage; charterers request it; the fixture concludes on-platform.

Chartering on GeoMarineHub is deliberately blind: identities stay protected while positions, specifications and offers move, so the deal cannot be shopped around the market before it is concluded. Negotiation runs in structured rounds — three offers per side, extendable once both agree — and commission applies only to a concluded fixture, split between the parties.

Consultancy

Marine and logistics expertise — surveys, claims, registration, compliance — at a platform-set price.

Consultancy pricing is opaque almost everywhere. Here the platform sets the customer price for a defined engagement — contract review, survey and inspection, claims handling, ship registration, compliance — and sources the expertise.
